  • A smartphone with a very pleasant design, but very weak in all other aspects.

    I've been using this smartphone for a few weeks, and I can say that I've tested everything on it.
    Everything is going very well, but it is comparable to a smartphone of the years 2018-2019, not at all topical. It is very beautiful in design, but very poor quality of materials. It only stayed with the cover it comes with, but still wiped the paint off the edges, very poor quality. The display is to be appreciated, it is very bright and offers a very pleasant viewing of any video or photo material, in any conditions. The sound is ok too, but qualitatively it could have been better.
    On the camera set side, it's complicated. The rear cameras do well, pretty well, but when it comes to nightsshoot, it's pesimous. The pictures taken in the dark but without nightmode come out better. So, the camera software is the weakest we've tested in 2022.
    The front/selfie camera is useless, it is there for nothing.
    Face recognition for unlock unfortunately works very verry bad.
    The battery is quite ok, it takes a whole day by 60 percent, with a moderate use.
    The sound quality in phone calls is good.
    I highly recommend it to those who do not have too many demands from the operating system, and to those who have no interest in the Selfie camera. I recommend it to those who watch videos on their phone, that's what it's best for.

    Great flag at a good price

    The ZTE Axon 40 Ultra is a flagship phone. It has great cameras, a beautiful (undisturbed) display. The battery lasts a whole day of heavy use.. well, two days is not a problem... When playing demanding games, for example " Call Of duty mobile ", the phone only heats up slightly.. the cooling is very good here and can cool down the Snap Gen1 The phone is very nice and it's comfortable to hold... The stereo speakers are loud, but they don't have very good depth (bass). The phone holds the phone signal very well. I get a signal even where others don't... Overall it's a nice phone for a nice price. The only thing is that it is a pity that SnapGen1+ is not available here and the display is not of the LTPO type.. Otherwise, everything is perfect...

What is a Ki score?
Ki is an automatic score based on the specifications and prices of devices. It is calculated using over 200 variables to rank smartphones, tablets and other devices from best to worst.
How do we calculate the Ki?

In this case, to determine the score we evaluate 5 general aspects:

  • Design and screen
  • Hardware and performance
  • Camera
  • Connectivity
  • Battery

Once these 5 factors have been rated, we introduce the price variable. This means that any two devices with the same ratings get a different Ki score for quality vs price.

Even a device objectively worse than another may have a higher Ki score if it has a better price.

Does the Ki score change?

The Ki varies as time goes by. As new devices with better specifications enter the market the Ki score of older devices will go down, always being compensated of their decrease in price.
